I use to think that success was how much financial gain you had. Well, in that department I might be concidered a failure. But I now know success is about you, who you are, achieving your goals, your family, and it can also be your business in the mix.

Mother Protests Marriage

I was at my local Family History Center yesterday looking on some films I ordered for some records, when I came across this:

Oct. 24, 1841. This day ..... Mr. George Maddocks of Hope and Miss Nancy Pease of Appleton.

The above intentions of marriage were denied by Miss Nancy Pease who made her personal appearance, took down the notice and committed it to the flames of the fiery furnace. attest Henry Meservey, Town Clerk

About Me

I'm happily married to my wonderful husband of nearly 20 years. We have three beautiful children. My hobbies are genealogy research and quilting. But it doesn't stop there, I also love horseback riding, camping, fishing, gardening, grave yard research, photography and other outdoor activities. Last year my children joined 4H. This year they drug me into it, and now I'm leading the quilting and goat groups. It's a busy but very happy life!
